Strategies and products

KGAL relies on the composition of diversified portfolios of renewable energy projects in the wind power, photovoltaic and hydropower sectors in Europe. As a result of declining returns for investments in “turnkey” projects (brownfield investments), we are targeting to enter renewable energy projects at an early stage (project or value-add investments) or during later operational phase to generate additional value. As part of active risk management, our portfolio composition targets a broad set-up across regions, technologies and project partners.

As recently as a few years ago, sustainability was not a major issue in the aviation sector. But since passenger numbers began to double every 15 years, the aviation industry has increasingly become a focus of worldwide economic growth.
